Leadership stories often make sense on stage but fail within the team. A chief executive describes a turnaround as one brave decision, while employees remember months of experiments, warnings, and quiet repairs. AI for script writing can organise a narrative, but organisation is not the same as fairness. Before a leader publishes a story, the structure should be checked to see who has agency, who bears risk, and whose work disappears.
